Idol group MONSTA X is presenting an even more special gift to celebrate Monbebe (the official fan club name)'s birthday.

According to their agency, Starship Entertainment, MONSTA X will release the digital album 'NOW PROJECT vol.2' at 6 p.m. today (26th).

'NOW' in 'NOW PROJECT' means 'now' and is also a word formed by flipping 'MON,' which makes up the group's name. Through this, MONSTA X expresses its determination not to leave the past only as memories but to move forward again from the present moment.

Earlier, on May 14 last year, to mark their 10th anniversary since debut, MONSTA X released 'NOW PROJECT vol.1' to add further meaning to it. While 'NOW PROJECT vol.1' was a project that connected the most recent period as a complete group by including songs released from 2021 to 2023 when leader Shownu could not participate due to mandatory military service, this vol.2 reworks MONSTA X's representative title tracks released from their debut until 2019 with a current color, showcasing the team's beginning, growth, and moments of transition.

The album features eight tracks that condense MONSTA X's growth narrative, including the title track 'Trespass (Rerecorded),' along with 'HERO (Broadcasting Ver.),' 'Beautiful,' 'DRAMARAMA,' 'Jealousy,' 'Shoot Out,' 'Alligator,' and 'Follow.'

Through these eight title tracks released at different times, MONSTA X connects the unique color and musical world they have firmly built since their debut to explain the current MONSTA X. In particular, by featuring 'Trespass' as the title track, they most clearly show where today's MONSTA X started while simultaneously expanding that beginning anew from the present perspective.

As such, 'NOW PROJECT vol.2,' which brings together the boldness of the start, the energy of those days, and even the team's presence that has become stronger after passing through countless times, is expected to be the album that most directly conveys today's MONSTA X.

Furthermore, to commemorate Monbebe's birthday, MONSTA X will also present special content alongside the digital album release. Tonight at 10 p.m., they will stream the Seoul performance of this year's '2026 MONSTA X WORLD TOUR [THE X : NEXUS],' which took place earlier this year, via their official YouTube channel to bring back the passionate atmosphere of the live performance.
